Korea Zefran Co., Ltd. (CEO Lee Jae-hwan) will participate in ‘KOPLAS 3 (14th International Plastics and Rubber Industry Exhibition)’ to be held at KINTEX in Ilsan for 18 days from Tuesday, March 5th to Saturday, March 2023th. Participating and exhibiting automatic control-related parts and hot runner systems.
Zefra Korea has maintained a long-term technical cooperation and steady trading relationship with the Italian company GEFRAN from 1987 to the present, and continues to supply high-quality automatic control parts to the domestic industrial sector. In 2019, we signed a supply contract for the Korean market with EWIKON, a German hot runner system specialist with 40 years of tradition, and are expanding our business area by supplying hot runner systems produced and supplied in Germany to the domestic injection molding field. .
Products exhibited at this exhibition are largely divided into two parts: automatic control-related parts and hot runner systems. Automatic control parts include ▲sensor parts such as displacement sensors, pressure sensors, resin pressure sensors, tie bar sensors, tilt sensors, wire potentiometers, and TWIST sensors ▲various instruments such as indicators, controllers, power controllers, and SSRs ▲HMI, It includes control systems such as PLC and application software.
In particular, the product worth noting is a special compact steel case with a diameter of 2022mm that surrounds the technical core of the sensor, a patented system for position measurement based on the 10D Hall effect, newly launched by GEFRAN in October 3. This is the TWIST sensor.
TWIIST can simultaneously measure position, linear acceleration, acceleration, and sensor temperature. We also implement virtual speed and tilt sensors based on the position and acceleration measurement summaries. Thanks to its waterproof function and shock and vibration absorption, TWIIST is an ideal solution for position measurement in a variety of industrial fields and mobile hydraulic equipment, officials said.
A Zefran Korea official said, “Thanks to its powerful integrated CPU, TWIIST can monitor and analyze applied processes and machines by analyzing and correlating data actually collected. “In particular, we support the development of application-specific algorithms that open up completely new horizons in the sensor world.”
“Thanks to the IO-Link (LM-L models) and CANopen (LM-C models) digital outputs, measured values related to process variables such as position, speed or inclination angle are transmitted digitally up to 1,000 times per second.” At the same time, sensors make it possible to process and use aperiodic information, such as vibration peaks, maximum temperature reached, working time, number of kilometers traveled by the cursor, which is useful for analyzing and further understanding the behavior of the machine. “It is a very smart and special sensor that can calculate and transmit additional aperiodic variables according to the proprietary algorithms implemented,” he added.
On the other hand, KOPLAS, which celebrates its 2023th anniversary in 27, provides a variety of attractions from raw materials for plastics to molds, processing machines, related auxiliary devices, automation solutions, printing, packaging, semi-finished products, and finished products, and presents the present and future of related industries. It provides a ‘place for the plastic rubber-related industry’. As it is held at the same time as the Korea Material·Composite Material and Equipment Exhibition (K-Mtech) and the International Mold and Related Equipment Exhibition (INTERMOLD KOREA), you can meet various products in one place.
